President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the first of four children of Catherine Eugenia Finnegan Biden and Joseph Robinette Biden, Sr. In 1953, the Biden family moved to Claymont, Delaware. President Biden graduated from the University of Delaware and Syracuse Law School and served on the New Castle County Council. At age 29, President Biden became one of the youngest Americans ever elected to the United States Senate. Just weeks after his Senate election, tragedy struck when his wife Neilia and daughter Naomi were killed, and sons Hunter and Beau were critically injured, in a car accident. He was sworn into the U.S. Senate at his sons’ hospital bedsides and began commuting from Wilmington to Washington every day, first by car, and then by train, in order to be with his family. In 1977, he married Jill Jacobs, and in 1980, their family was complete with the birth of their daughter Ashley. President Biden represented Delaware for 36 years in the U.S. Senate before becoming the 47th Vice President of the United States. As President, Biden restored America’s leadership and built our communities back better.
Kudus Research and Advocacy Center looked into Joe Biden political career Biden as a Leader in The Senate and 47th Vice President of the United States, as a Senator from Delaware for 36 years, then-Senator Biden played a leading role addressing some of our nation’s most important domestic and international challenges, including writing the Violence Against Women Act. As Vice President, he worked alongside President Obama to secure passage of the Affordable Care Act, oversee the then-largest economic recovery plan in history, and strengthen American leadership on the world stage.
Furthermore, Biden as the 46th President of The United States, in 2020, President Biden ran for the White House to restore the Soul of America, rebuild the backbone of America – the middle class, and unite the country. After being sworn in as the 46th President on January 20th, 2021, he took swift action to get America vaccinated and jumpstart an economic recovery that created more jobs than any other President has created in four years. The President’s agenda is investing in all Americans. His Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is rebuilding our roads and bridges, removing lead pipes, and expanding high-speed internet access. His Inflation Reduction Act is the largest investment in climate action in history. And his CHIPS and Science Act is making cutting-edge technology here in America with American workers.
The President beat Big Pharma – negotiating lower prescription drug costs and capping insulin at $35 a month for seniors. His agenda is lowering health insurance costs, cutting utility bills, and taking on corporate rip-offs like junk fees. The President nominated the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. He signed into law the first meaningful gun safety bill in nearly 30 years. And on the world stage, President Biden has strengthened our alliances and restored American leadership. He has rallied the world to stand up to Putin’s aggression in Ukraine, expanded NATO which is now larger and stronger than ever before, and increased America’s influence in the Indo-Pacific.
President Biden came to office determined to build an administration that looks like America and that’s what he’s done. He served as Vice President to the nation’s first Black President, and now serves as President alongside the nation’s first Black woman to be Vice President. President Biden has been at the center of the great American story of expanding opportunity and making real the promise of America to everyone.
Kudus Research and Advocacy Center after looking into Biden political career as known by everybody will like to share our perspective about Biden White house, President Biden running for the White house in 2020 was purely based on US intelligence operations who was brought to the scene and kept to serve a purpose after realizing that the then Trump administration was not properly representing thier sources of consultancy in the international font which purely legally against Trump rerun into office by US laws hence they were the need such measure taken for all possible verifications and authentications of political strategies US national security and confidential documents to be used among others be certain by these authorities before any move made, no wonder why Candidate Trump in 2022-2024 faced numerous legal battles in the competent court of jurisdictions in the United state from district to state to federal to Supreme court levels in these authorities quest to be certain of what really the issues where surrounding his sources and an informed decision made based on that, before after which Trump was allowed back to the highest office of the land as we are witnessing him now as the 47th President of the United State and 48th Presidency of the White house today.
Regarding major policies and programs, we start with the economic, as Biden White house made it one of his priorities started with massive economic recovery measure as not only the US economy was facing challenges but the entire world at large due to Coronavirus pandemic that strike the world crippling global economy as there were lockdown movements of people goods and services were restricted, supply chain distracted that affected drastically economic activity. Biden White house in US presidency history created the highest number of jobs within four years, since he took charge created over 15millions introduced the Inflation reduction act to look into US high inflation situations, federal rates constantly reviewed to complement inflation reduction measures, restore the supply chain that was distracted
Biden White house on Growth & Productivity While all economies suffered from the pandemic, real GDP recovered much faster and surpassed its pre-COVID level well before other G7 countries. The robust U.S. economic performance was fueled by comparatively strong productivity growth, which was stronger than in any country in the G7. In fact, the US is only one of three G7 countries that has had stronger productivity growth since the pandemic than the business cycle prior to it. Equally remarkably, productivity growth has stayed strong over the last two years, whereas in most G7 countries it has fallen compared to the first few years of the pandemic period. As Figure 2 shows, U.S. productivity growth over the past two years was 1.9%, 2.2 ppts higher than the average rate of the rest of the G7.
Biden White house on Entrepreneurship since January 2021, 20 million new business applications have been filed. It has been hypothesized that the application surge was driven by two waves. Pandemic-specific entrepreneurial opportunities, such as producing masks, may have contributed to the first wave while the second may have been related to pandemic uncertainty resolving for entrepreneurs (Decker and Haltiwanger 2023). Given new businesses are an important vehicle for job creation (Haltiwanger 2015), the surge may boost tomorrow’s labor market and future economic growth. As part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda and the Vice President’s 2023 Call to Action, there’s been significant progress on expanding capital access for underserved communities. The share of SBA 7(a) and 504 loans going to Black-owned Businesses has more than doubled between 2020 and 2023. Additionally, the share of Black and Hispanic families with business ownership rose between 2019 and 2022.
Biden White house on Investment over the last four years, there’s been substantial manufacturing investment. As a share of nominal GDP, investment in manufacturing structures rose to the highest level in 2024 Q2 since 1982. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), that is investment flows into the United States, have also risen in select categories. Clean energy and manufacturing of clean energy FDI has increased more than seven times since the prior administration, allowing business to hire more workers and increase factory production. These investment flows provide much needed capital to American entrepreneurs who, in turn, create high-quality manufacturing and energy jobs. Much of this inflow in likely due to the historic legislation of the IRA and CHIPS acts, passed by the Biden-Harris Administration. And this legislation helped ‘crowd in’ $1 trillion of total private investment commitments as of November 2024.
Biden White house on Labor market the national unemployment rate has been remarkably low for the last several years into the economy recovery. It remains low in historical context, with the annual unemployment rate being lower in only 17 percent of years since 1948. Payroll employment has also been exceptional, seeing monthly gains well above their 2019 pace as the economy recovered from the pandemic and then settled into a robust expansion. In the three months ending in November 2024, the average pace of payroll growth was 173,000 per month. While there have been a numerous of labor market records hit during the last four years, prime age participation is particularly notable. Despite a catastrophic pandemic, prime-age women’s participation has recovered, resumed its pre-pandemic upward trend, and reached a series high in August 2024. More surprisingly, prime-age men’s participation has now risen above its pre-pandemic rate, counter to many previous decades of decline. Since January 2021, the labor force participation rate of mothers with young children has increased by 3.4 percentage points to record highs. This increase is due, in part, to the Biden-Harris Administration’s efforts to increase access to affordable child care and early childhood education as CEA has referenced in past blogs. Along with these improvements in labor force participation have come a narrowing of long-standing disparities. Strong labor markets are especially beneficial for disadvantaged workers, and this has been particularly the case since the pandemic recession. Declining participation gaps by race, shown below, are one good example. Note, for example, how the Black participation rate minus the overall rate went from -3.5 ppts to -1.4 ppts, from March 2021 to November 2024. The strong economic growth record has led to a virtuous cycle of strong consumption growth, boosting labor demand, further raising incomes, and thereby consumption. In fact, incomes have outpaced prices recently due to the strong labor market and broadly easing inflation. After-tax personal income before government transfers—reflecting labor, business and asset-derived incomes increased about $3,800 (8%) per person in real terms from Jan. 2021 to Oct. 2024.
Biden White house on International Trade, Trade with America’s strategic partners has grown under the Biden-Harris administration, and key geopolitical allies such as Canada now represent a greater share of U.S. imports. The United States’ dependence on Chinese imports has also fallen dramatically, allowing American trade to be more diversified and resilient. According to the US Council of Economic advisers (2020 – 2024) data Mexico Canada South Korea Vietnam Germany in order of high imports made by US Japan and China recorded negative imports into US by way of percentage
Biden White house on Health Insurance Coverage and Marketplace Enrollment rates of uninsurance reached historic lows starting in the first quarter of 2022. Low rates of uninsurance were maintained during the unwinding of pandemic-era Medicaid coverage in 2023 and 2024. Marketplace enrollment also reached a record high at 14.5 million in 2022 and then continued to grow, reaching 16.4 million in 2023 and 21.4 million in 2024, beats Big Pharma negotiating lower prescription drug costs and capping insulin at $35 a month for seniors. His agenda was lowering health insurance costs, cutting utility bills, and taking on corporate rip-offs like junk fees.
Biden White house on the world stage, strengthened US alliances and restored American leadership.

Biden Whitehouse on immigration one of the biggest challenges of the administration was the migrants crisis the made a lot of news and headlines within the United State, the Americans and the world at large, for Biden White house needed to deal with the caravan of migrants heading towards US southern border in hopes of crossing into the US, many did cross illegally into the US that raised questions of Biden White house ability to handle the US southern border crisis which political opponents like the Republican in a political twist labelled it as “Biden Border Crisis-BBC” despite these challenges Biden White house continued some of the policies and programs of the previous regime like that of the Trump border Wall program expanded it, he also introduced merit based migrations policies and programs that aimed most likely country of origin of these caravan of migrants, offers where made to neighboring countries within the Americans, deals and agreements on how to handle these migrants reached among many progressive moves made by Biden White house towards resolving them, another hurdle that hit harder Biden White house handling of the migrants crisis within US was how to take care of those who managed to illegally cross into US, feeding and sheltering them was causing American taxpayers if not millions but billions of dollars of again political opponents like the Republican party didn’t take it kindly questioning the moral behind Biden White house housing illegals in luxurious hotels to the detriment’s of US citizen most especially Veterans who are facing serious hosing needs and challenges and illegal being housed in luxurious hotels paid by the taxpayers, busing of illegal migrants was also initiated to the so called sanctuary city’s by the Republicans, illegal migrants they claimed takes legal American jobs, contributes to the high rates of crimes committed in the US among others, Kudus Research and Advocacy Center not surprise one of the reasons Americans voted out Biden White house Democratic Party was Immigration issues aside economy it was next to voters priorities
Biden White house on Climate the Biden-Harris Administration enacted three historic polices that promoted clean energy: the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, CHIPS and Science Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act. These laws led to rapid increases in both investment and employment in the clean energy sector. Investment in the clean energy sector has reached all-time highs of more than $70 billion dollars in 2024 Q3. Total growth in clean energy jobs increased almost 5 percent between 2022-2023, and in levels, currently stands at nearly 3.2 million in 2023. Employment in electric power generation has increased more than 10% during the Biden-Harris Administration and most of this gain has come from clean sources of generation. Biden White house on climate change was one of it kind never happened in the historic of the United state presidency as rejoined the Paris climate accord previously rejected by Trump administration initiated one of the biggest single investment in climate action with his Inflation reduction act numerous policies and programs initiated towards climate change increase US engagements and participation of Climate change activities Climate change envoy White house climate change corps among many initiatives made by Biden Whitehouse just to achieve climate change net zero emission targets and above all increase US resources and fundings globally towards climate action. Biden White house never failed to remind the world and other colleagues the needed to fulfill commitments made towards climate change with making the necessary funds and other resources pledged available towards Climate change
Biden White house on global peace and security efforts was one that could not go unnoticed despite the world was in hibernation when Biden White house took charge due to Coronavirus that didn’t keep long for it to start making sure that peace and security prevail in the world, as Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022 triggering one of the biggest conflict in modern history in Europe and the world at large after the cold war, Biden White house had to allied with allies from EU NATO G7 among others to make sure the situation were brought under control, sanctions and embargoes was imposed on Russia assets frozen and seized, refugees situation in Europe was at its peak again, military aid and other aid was in constant supply to Ukraine by Biden White house and allies without such moves by now Ukraine would have been fully invade and captured as even with that Russia still holds strategic regions like Crimea Kharkiv among others in eastern Ukraine under region control with installation of new Russian leadership in claiming of such territories as Russia and still advancing, not long aga still battling Russia Ukraine war then came Israel Hamas conflict that brought the Middle East and the entire world again to its knees in such of peace and security, again Biden White house made significant advancements by making sure Humanitarian aid hostages truce deals negotiations and general Middle East peace issues negotiated some went through others failed to but Biden White still persisted Yemen Houthi rebels in the red sea, the horn of Africa Sudan and others were not left out in Biden White house efforts towards peace and security in the world as policies programs aids and other resources were duly made available globally in Biden White house efforts to bring peace and security.

Finally Biden White house performance was compared with his immediate predecessor in Four key areas Economic Growth, inflation, jobs: Biden and Trump’s economic records compared as sourced from Al Jazeera media outlet
Economic growth
Both the Biden and Trump administrations oversaw periods of robust growth. Since Biden’s inauguration, gross domestic product (GDP) has increased by 8.4 percent when adjusted for inflation. Under Trump, GDP grew 6.8 percent – but that includes the plunge in economic activity that occurred during the first year of the pandemic. Excluding 2020, Biden comes out slightly ahead, with an annualized growth rate of about 2.9 percent, compared with just under 2.7 percent for Trump.
Inflation
Biden’s tenure has been marked by far higher inflation compared with Trump’s – although many of the factors driving high prices, such as COVID-related supply chain disruptions, were out of his control. Since Biden came to office, prices have risen more than 19 percent. The average price of a gallon (3.8 litres) of petrol rose from $2.33 to $3.76 between January 2021 and May of this year, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The cost of a loaf of bread increased from $1.55 to $1.97, while the price of a dozen eggs jumped from $1.47 to $2.70 At a similar point in Trump’s presidency, prices had only risen about 5 percent. While inflation has come down sharply since peaking at 9.1 percent in mid-2022, it remains stubbornly high. The consumer price index last month stood at 3.3 percent, well above the US Federal Reserve’s target of about 2 percent.
Jobs
Biden and Trump can both claim to have presided over strong labor markets. Unemployment fell to a 53-year low of 3.4 percent in January last year and has stayed below 4 percent for all but one month since then. Excluding 2020, Trump also oversaw a period of low unemployment, with the jobless rate hitting a low of 3.5 percent in late 2019. Under Biden, the economy has added about 15.7 million jobs. By contrast, Trump left office with some three million fewer jobs – although that figure was skewed by the pandemic. However, even before the pandemic, job creation grew at a slower pace during Trump’s administration than it has under Biden.
Wages
While Biden and Trump both presided over solid wage growth on paper, US workers have seen their earnings decline in real terms under Biden due to inflation. Under Trump, wage growth stayed above inflation, delivering modest rises in workers’ incomes. From March 2021, consumer prices began to diverge from earnings, before the trend started to reverse in early 2023. The upshot is that real median weekly wages fell by 2.14 percent between the start of Biden’s term and the first quarter of 2024, according to a FactCheck.org analysis citing US Bureau of Labor Statistics data. The positive news for US workers is that wages have started growing again. In May, real wages rose 0.5 percent compared with the previous year, although they have yet to recover to their levels at the start of Biden’s tenure. “While real wage growth has turned slightly positive in recent months, the level of real wages is still below where they were at the onset of the inflation surge that we began to see in the first quarter of 2021,” the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta said in an analysi
Kudus Research and Advocacy Center weigh into Setting the Record Straight by using these benchmarking the Biden White house years spent using the Fact check and US Council of Economic Advisers analyses extract figures data and other relevant materials as sources on the official site of WH.gov The macroeconomic performance over the course of the Biden-Harris Administration didn’t just beat forecasters expectations repeatedly, but policy changes and bold, new legislation led to strong progress in growth, productivity, jobs, incomes, investment and entrepreneurship. As we reflect on the Administration’s record over the last four years, the following indicators will help benchmark where the economy is as the next administration takes over.
Biden White house on Growth & Productivity While all economies suffered from the pandemic, real GDP recovered much faster and surpassed its pre-COVID level well before other G7 countries. The robust U.S. economic performance was fueled by comparatively strong productivity growth, which was stronger than in any country in the G7. In fact, the US is only one of three G7 countries that has had stronger productivity growth since the pandemic than the business cycle prior to it. Equally remarkably, productivity growth has stayed strong over the last two years, whereas in most G7 countries it has fallen compared to the first few years of the pandemic period. U.S. productivity growth over the past two years was 1.9%, 2.2 ppts higher than the average rate of the rest of the G7.
Kudus Research and Advocacy Center concludes that indeed Biden White house was one of it kind of people of color centered served as Vice president to the first black African president first black female vice president in the history of American presidency appointed first female black supreme court judge to serve in the US supreme court of Ghana, historic jobs created within his four year period first US president to achieve over 15million jobs created within his four year term in office, climate change at his heart, resolving of global peace and security poverty alleviation respect o human right minority groups and the vulnerable, Democracy and constitutional rule but Biden White house was not one without floors the Migrants Criss that political opponents labelled as Biden Border Crisis BBC, the poor performance of the US economy in the later part of Biden White house, also saw two big global wars to deal with that Russia Ukraine war and Israel Hamas of which political opponents accused him of being weak in the international front that saw such wars happening such never happened since the WWII and the Cold world war, political witch hunt as Biden White house saw numerous so to speak go after his political opponents like his main opponents then Former president Donald J Trump and subsequently the Republican nominee to serve as their candidate in the 2024 general elections not Kudus Research and Advocacy can vouched that caused Biden White house second term bid after losing heavily to Donald Trump in CNN News first US presidential debate pressure mounted for him to step down pointing his age and health conditions but was not the case Donald J Trump made it clear since your consultancy services is channeled through my GOP official email and we all are running for same office no need should that happen especially the political motivated wit hunts you initiated against me and the Republican party we noted, but also Biden White relied heavily on consultancy or briefings abroad as in the case of President Trump regime or better put from intelligent trusted source that made them more of them wait for verification authentications and confirmations on major decision before action taken, of which many of Biden White house dealings by way of consultancy or briefings were passing through Donald J Trump official GOP email such a move heavily guided by US authorities our sources revealed, Generally Biden White house was one of it kind not would never happened again in the history of American presidency despite we as an organization described it as a “ Lamb Check” it worth rejoicing affiliating working with and above all be celebrated forever
